Why Now?

Each transition represents roughly $500,000 in lifetime earnings impact when you factor in salary trajectory, benefits, and growth opportunities.

It's the framework I wish I'd had for my own career moves, refined through feedback from HR professionals, and successful job seekers.

Stop wondering "what if" about the offers you didn't take. Make your next career move with confidence.
